rdesktop with PDAXROM
« on: August 14, 2004, 06:40:43 pm »
Rdesktop 1.3.0 works well !!!
I succeed to connect to my XP desktop.
Beware you need to set a password to your XP account for connecting with rdesktop, or you will get an error message.

Everything, work even sound.
What more impress your friends than remote connect to your XP Desktop with the starting sound from your Zaurus and starting to play your music. !!! Don't try with videos the refresh screen is too low for this.

But what makes me angry, is the keymap for Windows for Zaurus.
Yes, what more angry than can't press the ":" key because from Zaurus you need to press the "fn" key before. and the "fn" key seems to change your langage.

If anybody has already keymap an issue, it will be very wonderful.

Because I will remote connect with Rdesktop (RDP) => Windows instead of remote connect with ssh => Linux.

WHY ? because of consumption

        |  Bandwitdh  |   Server Processor
ssh   |      Lots       |      Few
rdp   |     Few        |     Lots                    

To conclude, X windows too slow for remote client => Bandwidth issue
rdp more useful.
